Jada and Priya are trying to solve the equation 2/3+x=4
Jada says, “I think we should multiply each side by 3/2 because that is the reciprocal of 2/3."
Priya says, “I think we should add -2/3 to each side because that is the opposite of 2/3."
1. Which person's strategy should they use?
2. Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Priya is correct.  Because 2/3 is being added to x and not multiplied, then subtracting 2/3 from both sides is the correct action.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's run through solving it that way:

2/3 + x = 4

2/3 - 2/3 + x = 4 - 2/3

0 + x = 4 - 2/3

x = 4 - 2/3

x = 10/3

What is the distance of
CD

given that
C (5,-2) and D (-3,8)
Leave your answer as a square root.

Answers

Answer:

CD = [tex]\sqrt{164}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = C(5, - 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (D(- 3, 8)

d = [tex]\sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(8+2)^2}[/tex]

   = [tex]\sqrt{(-8)^2+10^2}[/tex]

    = [tex]\sqrt{64+100}[/tex]

    = [tex]\sqrt{164}[/tex]

     = 2[tex]\sqrt{41}[/tex] ← in simplest form

Given :

C (5, - 2)D (- 3, 8)

To Find :

CD = ?

Solution :

As, we have C (5, - 2) and D (- 3, 8), to find CD let's use distance formula :

[tex] \underline{\boxed{\tt{Distance \: between \: two \: points = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^{2} + (y_2 - y_1)^{2}}}}}[/tex]

Here,

x₁ = 5x₂ = - 3y₁ = - 2y₂ = 8

So, by filling values :

[tex] \sf : \implies CD = \sqrt{(-3 - 5)^{2} + (8 - (-2))^{2}}[/tex]

[tex] \sf : \implies CD = \sqrt{(-8)^{2} + (8 +2))^{2}}[/tex]

[tex] \sf : \implies CD = \sqrt{64 + (10)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex] \sf : \implies CD = \sqrt{64 + 100}[/tex]

[tex] \sf : \implies CD = \sqrt{164}[/tex]

Hence, distance of CD is [tex] \bold{\sf \sqrt{164}.}[/tex]

72 millimeters to 3 meters

Answers

The ratio is 24:1000 or 0.024.

What is Ratio?

A ratio is a comparison between two amounts that is calculated by dividing one amount by the other. The quotient a/b is referred to as the ratio between a and b if a and b are two values of the same kind and with the same units, such that b is not equal to 0. Ratios are represented by the colon symbol (:). As a result, the ratio a/b has no units and is represented by the notation a: b.

Given:

72 millimeters to 3 meters

Now, Convert 3 meter to millimeter

3 meter= 3 x 1000

             = 3000 mm

Then, ratio is

= 72 / 3000

= 24/1000

= 0.024

ACME Company's expected sales can be modeled by g(t) = 13 – 21? + 4t - 7, where g(t) is measured in thousands
of dollars and t is the number of years after 2008. Find the average rate of change in expected sales from 2009 to
2015.

Select one:
O a. -$45,000
O b. $45,000
O c. $36,000
O d. $270,000

Answers

i think the answer is B, not sure

You can use the given function to evaluate the expected sales at year 2009 and 2015 and use the net difference divided by time as the average rate of change.

The average rate of change in expected sales from 2009 to 2015 is given by $12,059,941

How to find the average rate of change of something?

Let the thing that is changing be y and the thing with which the rate is being compared is x, then we have the average rate of change of y as x changes as:

[tex]\text{Average rate} = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

where when

[tex]x = x_1, y = y_1\\and \\x = x_2, y = y_2[/tex]

Using the above method to calculate the needed average rate

Since the sales is given by the function [tex]g(t) = t^3 - 2t^2 + 4t - 7[/tex], and the inputs are 2009 and 2015, thus, evaluating g(t) (sales) at those values of t, we get:

[tex]g(2009) = 8023737057[/tex] (replaced 2009 with t and calculated)

[tex]g(2015) = 8096096703[/tex] (replaced 2015 with t and calculated)

Using these values to calculate the average rate

[tex]\text{average rate} = \dfrac{g(2015) - g(2009)}{2015 - 2009} = \dfrac{72359646}{6} = 12059941\\[/tex]

Thus,

The average rate of change in expected sales from 2009 to 2015 is given by $12,059,941

A shoe distributor sells a particular pair of shoes to a store for $42.80. The store then sells this pair of shoes to a customer at a 35% markup. How much money does the store make from selling one pair of shoes to a customer?

Answers

Answer:

$14.98

Step-by-step explanation:

The store bought the pair of shoes for $42.80.

If the store sells the pair of shoes at a 35% markup, then it is selling it at:

([tex]\frac{35}{100}[/tex] × 42.80 ) + 42.80 = 14.98 + 42.80 = $ 57.78

To calculate how much money the store is making from selling this pair of shoes:

57.78 - 42.80 = $14.98

The store would be making $14.98 for selling one pair of shoes to a customer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kari estimated the quotient of Negative 12 and one-fifth divided by 4 and two-fifths to be –8. Which best describes her error?

-12 1/5 ÷ 4 2/5 = -8

A. Kari multiplied the compatible numbers –12 and 4.

-12 * 4 = 48

A. Is not correct

B. Kari found that the quotient of a negative number and a positive number is negative.

Example:

-a/a = -1

The rule is right

C. Kari found that the quotient of a positive number and a negative number is positive.

a/-a = -1

The rule is wrong

D. Kari added the compatible numbers –12 and 4.

The diagonals of rectangle. QRST intersect at P. Given that m<PTS = 34° and QS=10 , find QP.

Answers

Answer:

QP = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

since QRST is a rectangle, and QRST intersect at P, then QTS and QRS are right  triangles.

because <T is a right angle, line TR passes through the midpoint of line QS, therefore 2(QP) = QS

10/2 = 5

By the property of diagonal in a rectangle are equal and bisect each other measure of QP is 5 units.

What are the area and perimeter of a rectangle?

We know the perimeter of any 2D figure is the sum of the lengths of all the sides except the circle and the area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width.

Given, QRST is a rectangle, QS and RT are the diagonals of the rectangle

QRST.

By properties of rectangles, we know a rectangle is a parallelogram in which opposite sides are equal and diagonals bisect each other.

Given, QS is 10 units and QS = 2QP.

10 = 2QP.

x = 135-115

x = 20

Please Make Me Brainlist

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

first look at the line which says a and 135, they add up to 180 so

a + 135 =180

a= 180-135

a= 45

Then to find the x we will have to add all the angles inside the triangle which would add up to 180

So,

x+115+45=180

x+160=180

x=180-160

x=20

Answer:

3x = 72

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3x + -1 = 71

Reorder the terms:

-1 + 3x = 71

Solving

-1 + 3x = 71

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.

-1 + 1 + 3x = 71 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0

0 + 3x = 71 + 1

3x = 71 + 1

Combine like terms: 71 + 1 = 72

3x = 72

Divide each side by '3'.

x = 24
